Kitchen Makeover (Part 3)

kitchen 14

Primed and ready to go… When you last checked in on this Kitchen Makeover, the chalkboard paint was up and I was preparing the cabinets for painting.  All the doors and drawers were sanded and primed, as were the cabinet fronts themselves.  I loved the idea of a Robbin’s Egg blue for the cabinets, but the homeowner, who was already missing her bold green wall, wanted her favorite color back in.  So I suggested a more toned down shade of green; one that I knew would still suit her artsy and fun style, but work with the design of the kitchen.

Kitchen Makeover (Part 2)

If you read my last post, you’re probably dying to find out what the homeowners decided to do for their budget friendly Kitchen Makeover.  Okay… so maybe it’s really just ME who is dying with excitement.  But that’s because they agreed to have their kitchen cabinets painted, and turn the entire back wall into a giant chalkboard!!!  I was really, REALLY hoping they would like that idea as much as I did.

Kitchen Makeover (Part 1)

If money wasn’t an object, we could all remodel and have fabulous kitchens… But a fabulous Kitchen Makeover with little to no money…now that…THAT takes some imagination.  Maybe that’s why I was thrilled when a friend asked if I could swing by and give her some ideas for her kitchen.  This is what I found when I got there:

I’ll give you a few seconds to lift your jaw off the floor before I go on…

Headboard Makeover: Drapery Rod Finials Give Bedposts a Boost

DSC_0053

If your headboard needs a makeover, here’s an idea:  Use Drapery Rod Finials to Give Bedposts a Boost.  It certainly worked in this case, turning a generic picket fence headboard into something a little more upscale.  These days, drapery rod finials come in so many shapes and sizes.  You just have to think outside the box.  You can add them to all sorts of things, paint over them, and be amazed by how they add instant style.

Turquoise Dresser with Damask Detail

I realize I’ve been blogging heavily on furniture projects lately, but when you see this Turquoise Dresser with Damask Detail on top,  you’ll understand why I couldn’t wait to show it off.  I LOVE how it turned out.  It’s kind of bold, kind of classic, and it’s definitely a statement piece.  I guarantee, you won’t find another one like it anywhere.

Boys Dresser

No matter how long I’ve been doing this, I still seem to learn from every project…and in the case of this Boys Dresser, I actually learned two things:  One, sometimes I picture things way differently in my mind.  And, Two, you should really read directions.  You’ll see what I mean as you continue reading on.  For now, let me take you back to the beginning, when this cute and colorful dresser was plain white.

Furniture Flip Update

DSC_0210

And now time for an important Furniture Flip Update… (Insert news bulletin soundtrack here.)  Last month, in a Murals by Marcy video tutorial, you saw me take an old piece of furniture that had been sitting out in the elements, and had the water damage to prove it…and I turned it into this darling dresser. It’s now pretty in pink with black piping and a striped top, accented by pink crystal knobs.   Well, I’m happy to report, it’s SOLD.

Painting Kitchen Cabinets

P1050722

One of the most challenging projects I’ve ever taken on is painting kitchen cabinets.  If you’re one of those people who can’t stand their kitchen, but can’t afford to reface their existing cabinets, let alone buy new ones, then painting them is definitely something to consider.  I know there are people who frown on the idea, but you really can change the look of your kitchen dramatically without spending a fortune.  Just be prepared to invest a lot of time.
